City Receives Financial Reporting Award

Post Date:01/04/2018

WHITEHORSE – The City has once again received the Canadian Award for Financial Reporting (CAFR) for its 2016 Annual Report.

The CAFR program recognizes achievement from governmental participants in comprehensive financial reporting. Receiving this award for the 13th year in a row is a significant accomplishment for the City.

The annual financial report has been judged by impartial Canadian Review Committee members to meet the high standards of the program, including demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” designed to clearly communicate the municipality’s financial story and to motivate potential users and user groups to read the report.

The Government Finance Officers Association, which serves almost 19,000 government finance professionals in Canada and the U.S., recently presented this award to the City’s Financial Services Department.
